I'd say this is probably the best episode so far. Murdoc makes his debut here, and I must say I like what they've done with his character. The actor portraying him is great. We also get to see some character development with Bozer, as well as Nikki. Great episode, I hope there are more like this one.

And that's Season 1. :cheers:
So, what do I think about the show?
Well, it's been interesting. When I first heard of a new MacGyver series, I imagined a series called S.A.M., with MacGyver's son being up for the job, and RDA mentoring him. For better or worse, this is essentially a reboot of the original series. We have a younger Angus MacGyver (yes, Angus was his name-o), Thornton is now a woman, and Jack Dalton is also younger, more athletic, and former Delta Force, though still 'charming', like the original.
Despite an explosion in the opening credits, the show did not start with a bang. Occasional silly TV science, abundant product placement, a few continuity errors, and plot holes of various sizes. And probably just as important, the inevitable comparison between the two series. A lot of people liked MacGyver, and hoped for something else. After a few episodes, it became clear that this was very different to what "MacGyver" meant to fans of the original series.
The bad
The new series tries very hard to be a lot of things at once:
A commercial for Swiss Army Knives, with constant, crystal clear stills of knives, with the Victorinox logo lingering on our screens for possibly far too long. Also, attempting to advertise multiple models through out the episode, we get continuity errors that even people less excited about these knives can spot. It also undermines the action, as the saks often factor into the plot.
A reboot of a beloved series. The writers cannot help themselves in including references to the original series, references so blatant, they come across as lazy. A character mentions something that fans will recognize from the original series, and we can almost see the writers wink at us. "Remember this little thing from the original?" Also, there are so many ties to the original, it feels awkward. Thornton is here, although a woman now, Bozer is here, Murdoc, Nikki. And everyone is young and fabulous. Even minor characters from the original make an appearance here, and quite a few plot points, though adjusted into a more or less new story.
A new series that people who do not know MacGyver was can still enjoy. Indeed, you can start watching this with no prior knowledge of MacGyver, and still be able to follow the story. Still, the tone is quite different. Here, MacGyver is even more of a legend, despite his young age. The tasks at hand have evolved into today's technological advances, and MacGyver is able to tackle all sorts of predicaments with an unnatural speed. A solution is presented as if time has stood still; bombs, villains, viruses, toxic gasses, free-fall, everything waits patiently and politely, until MacGyver has built his gizmo. The series is based around Mac finding materials and building things as he goes along, and I can accept that, but it takes him so little time, that it becomes a little off-putting at times. Along with this, it feels as if the characters know they're in a TV Series. Even at gun point, they spit out one-liners, puns or jokes. Sure, most of them are highly trained operatives, but even so, they take these serious moments so lightly, it almost makes it more of an action-comedy series, much more than they intended.
A new exciting action series. Man, talk about plot twists. Within the first season, there are a lot of things that are not how they appear. It almost takes away from the nice progression of the story. Also, every time MacGyver explains what he is doing just so we know, I feel I am watching MythBusters. Those text prompts they superimpose over components irritate me the most.
The good
The chemistry between characters is undeniable. They are friends, and it feels like that when watching them.
Jack was never a favorite of mine in the old series. The new Jack is a much better character. He is now an army veteran sniper, a highly trained soldier and field agent. He is also a father figure to Riley, and mentor of sorts to Bozer. He comes across as an extremely likable character, and George Eads' portrayal is one of the best aspects of the new show. He is a great actor.
Riley is also a great addition to the team. Another very likeable character. Sure, TV hacking and everything she does is a cliche nowadays, and not how real life works, but it does work in the series.
Murdoc was also revamped, and I like what the end result. Great movie villain.
To add to this, I like how there are more characters in this. The original had only MacGyver and Thornton as main characters. Everyone else appeared in far too few episodes in my opinion. Many good characters had potential that went unused. Here, the better Jack is in every episode, and Riley joins the team, Bozer is much more prominent, and we still have recurring characters to flesh out their world.
Also, remember those silly episodes of the original MacGyver? The racial stereotypes, the child actors? There's none of that here.
At some point, I laughed out loud a couple of times per episode, to jokes that were well placed, quick and witty, that did not harm the tone of the episode.
I am also a fan of where the series is going. There is a good amount of drama, character development, an overall story arc, good usage of characters.
I know people started this and just gave up on it, for their own reasons. Still, I can tell you it does improve. The product placement becomes less blatant, the characters become more likeable, the stories become more interesting, silly TV science gets toned down, and the quality of episodes picks up.
Well, I have probably rambled beyond your threshold of interest and attention. To sum up, this series started a bit rough around the edges, but things get better. Not everyone will like it. I did not like the first handful of episodes, but this is understandable, since universe building and introducing everything is not easy. Having finished Season 1, I am curious and even excited about Season 2, and also a little happy, relieved, and satisfied that it got renewed for a third season.

As for the show, I couldn't see more than the first episode :P so can't comment much :dunno:
As for that squared opening hole knife, I'd say it's a Gerber or SOG just because they are the two main companies using square thumb holes but I don't recognise that model ???
-
The first handful of episodes are average. Nothing to write home about, and not much in terms of the overall story arc. Especially the third episode, that was pretty bad.

I love the difference in the Episode titles between the old series and this new one
Older serials had much more adventurous and "action-packed" titles, the ones in this remake are quite ??? even though the nodding to Victorinox models and references is obvious :drink:
-
The original series had episodes that were more of a self-contained story than the reboot. Even if you watch episodes out of order, it does not matter all that much. It's like every episode is a short movie, and the titles make sense. This changed with the reboot. The overall story arc is more present, so they went with MacGyverisms for season 2. Season 1 titles are silly. It makes the series feel cheap. Although, not all titles of implements are used literally. In some episodes the implement of the title does not get used at all, in others it is a metaphor. It's silly.

If you follow this thread you probably do not mind spoilers all that much, but even so: Spoilers ahead, as I nitpick the plot holes and continuity errors of this episode.
Summary of episode:
In the opening, we see MacGyver offer his Explorer to a monkey, so it loses interest in a detonator it's holding. The monkey takes the Explorer, and drops the detonator. MacGyver goes the entire episode without having a sak, having to use dedicated tools. In the end, it is mentioned that that was the sak his grandfather had given him and Jack gifts a Delemont Evolution S557 to him, so that Mac has a sak again.
A couple of things.
Firstly, the model his grandfather had given him was a Deluxe Tinker, as we see in the flashback in "2x04 - X-ray & penny". Of course, there are a lot of continuity errors in the series, with different models used frames apart from each other during the same sequence. Let's say they messed up and instead of MacGyver offering the monkey a Deluxe Tinker, they filmed the scene with an Explorer. Simple continuity error, right?
Wrong. The episode suggests that MacGyver only had that one sak up to this point. We are told that his grandfather had given it to him, and he had it all this time, and had to sacrifice it, and was left without a sak for the events of that day, and after the mission was completed Jack gifted him a new sak.
Really? Who decided to write this? I am aware of the silly TV science throughout the series, but this makes just as little sense.
What kind of model magically spawns the implement you want, out of the full roster of implements? We have seen a dozen models, and often the implement used is intricate to the plot. Sure, he might use a blade or bottle opener or something on occasion, so it could be any model, but we have also seen implements that only appear in a few models, like the pliers, scissors, file, saw, inline Phillips, magnifying glass, even the light and cigar cutter. How on Earth does it make sense that he was supposed to have one model up to this point? Is he using an enchanted Delemont Giant?
Also, really? MacGyver sacrifices his magical sak, alright let's go along with that, but does he really not have any others? Considering all the different models we've seen? Had he really not bought any other saks, and only had the one his grandfather had given him? Had no one gifted him any, given how much he likes them, and his friends know this? Did he not have any spares in his house, car, or locker at work? Just the one? Did he remain with no sak and go to a mission without paying a visit to any number of stores that sell these?
I realize that this is a silly thing to pick apart, but is it? This is a TV series, but it is not set in a science-fiction universe, or at least, it does not claim to be, like the X-Files, or Star Trek. This is still the "real world", and these are normal people. Does Jack Dalton only have one handgun? Does Riley only have one laptop? Even if we can disregard the different models that have been used, which is itself hard to do, why would MacGyver ever go on a mission without his most trusted tool? How does any of this make any sense?
This is how it would make sense:
MacGyver offers the monkey his Deluxe Tinker that his grandfather had given him. That's it. And do not tell me he only had that one sak. Come on. What kind of sense does that make?
Or, better still, no monkey business. It was silly, and the whole continuity, character, and logic error would not have existed in the first place.
Well, rant over.
-
Summary: Despite the dozen models we have seen, many of which have been integral to the plot, we are told that MacGyver has had only one knife up to this episode. It was sacrificed and he had no other knife to take to the next mission.
-
well, at this point that is a plot hole of the biggest magnitude, especially given the amount of SAKs and the protagonism of these particular tools in the show :dunno:

wow, they must be fond of the CRKT knives, they appear almost every 3-4 episodes,
and that Spyderco is a rare one, the Volpe, introduced in 2005, it only came in those characteristic stainless steel scales with wood inlays 8), and it's very odd to see it on a modern TV show :think: and especially carried in the open position on a kydex sheath :dunno:
It was made in Italy, in Maniago, by FOX Knives, if I remember correctly ::)

It is interesting and weird to see a Spyderco carried open in a kydex sheath, let alone a rare discontinued model. :salute:

Terrible episode. :rant:
The story was so weak, it hurt. The Ghost, a nemesis of Mac who had been underused so far, but built up to be a main villain, was just passed off as a generic single-episode bad guy. Also the story was so boring, full of bomb-centered action flick cliches, and the 'twist' was so predictable and insignificant, I started laughing out loud the second they revealed it.
Every other line was exposition so unnecessary, it boggles the mind. It's like Captain Obvious narrating the DVD commentary. "We're in a room now." "The bad guy is not here." "Oh, there's a bomb here." I have eyes, thank you.
-
As a side note, this thread is now up to speed with the series. Every episode that has aired so far has been viewed, examined, and catalogued with the clearest still shots I could get.
Episodes will be posted as they are released, hopefully anyway, and I intend to watch all of them, regardless of liking the series or not, which I currently do.

Another helplessly mediocre episode. This one goes through the plot-point checklist of the traditional virus-oriented movie. Captain Obvious was the writer once more, as characters comment on each other's comments, leaving nothing untouched. "The CDC is asking for help." "The Centers for Disease Control needs us?" "They have an inventory discrepancy." "So they lost something." Goodness me, are these characters aware they're in a TV series? Is this show aimed at five-year-olds?
Riley's side-plot was utterly boring. And I could not care less about Leanna. She has no chemistry with anyone. Also, George Eads was there. The best actor and arguably the most badass character in the series, and you relegate him to comic relief? Why? Bozer is in this. Why is Bozer portrayed like a seasoned government field agent, but Jack, who is a seasoned government field agent, is treated like the goofy sidekick?
-
:rant: :poh: :cry:
If MacGyver makes it to a fourth season, it will do so without George Eads. TVLine has confirmed that the actor has decided to leave his role as Jack Dalton during the second half of the CBS reboot’s current third season.
According to THR, Eads stormed off the series’ Atlanta set in October following an unspecified altercation during production of an episode. He eventually returned to the set. His final episode is slated to air in early 2019. Eads had reportedly been asking to be released from his long-term contract in order to return to Los Angeles (where his young daughter resides).

This episode was a mixed bag.
The Mac & Jack story was fine, but a little silly, and they even acknowledge it in the episode. Show content
Set-up of the movie Saw
The ending 'twist' was so predictable, but I was glad it happened just I expected it to, because I like Jack. Plus three different SAK models, so I am happy.
Also, I thought "fallout" meant Mac and Jack would clash as an excuse for Jack to be written off he show, but it was just a reference to a bunker.
The subplot was just interchangeable filler. It could have been in any episode and it would not have changed anything. They've probably filmed a bunch of these and use them randomly in episodes.
Bozer is insufferable in this episode. I hope they kill him off. He adds nothing to the episode, his character is not believable or interesting, and apart from his name, he has no connection to 'MacGyver'. His scenes could have been in any action series and you would not know it was supposed to be MacGyver-related. His talent of making masks and prosthetics has been forgotten, which is silly, because they recruited him for that very skill set.
Leanna is plain boring. I feel no connection to her, no chemistry with any other cast member, no special skills are displayed to warrant her presence. She knows how to fly a chopper. Why not use that in an episode? She is on the team just because she is the love interest of Bozer, and yet they still act like strangers around each other.

What a great episode.
An excellent wilderness setting, and a small subplot that did not take away from the excitement of the main plot.
This episode respected the spirit of the original series, fitting more in there than the remake. I could easily picture this episode with Richard Dean Anderson in the lead, the main plot anyway.
The guests provided good performances, which helps the episode even more. Riley was great in this. Bozer was alright. They chose to make Riley the 'good student' and Bozer the 'do I have to' student, but he pulled his weight.
Of course, a few plot elements were a little predictable, if you watch action series. Still, these are forgiven, thanks to a well executed story, great performances all around, a nice natural setting, and knives.
Two SAKs, plus our favorite CRKT, and Dave Canterbury's book, and maybe a Zippo, to compliment the cast. Props to the props department.
I know many fans of the original series did not like the direction of this series, but if you can watch this episode, do it. It's good, old school fun.

Well, Jack's replacement is here. I did not like her immediately, which is a common tactic of introducing a replacement character. She did badass stuff, she's cold, she's smart.
By the end of the episode, I did not hate her, but as I look back at the chemistry between Mac and Jack, I cannot help but miss Jack. Desi so far is just a generic action series character. Mysterious, smart, distant, and female.
At least she did something, unlike Leanna and Bozer who just spat out some exposition and stood around for the rest of the episode. I thought Leanna had been written off, and in this episode, removing her entirely would change nothing. She and Bozer could be the replacement of Jack in the field, making mistakes as rookies, endangering Mac and the mission but solving it by the end, having Maddy scold them, seeing them work with their relationship and the new challenge of working together with Mac.
But no. Let's just have them do nothing, and introduce yet another character.
Cage was great. Why can't she come back? :cry:

Mindless action, uninteresting attempts at drama, and a ludicrous premise.
The whole set-up is boring and not at all plausible, and gets absolutely ridiculous as the episode progresses, approaching sitcom levels of silliness. Can secret agents really talk about committing treason on their phones and in their headquarters? Without SWAT teams bouncing on them?
Ethan is an interesting character. No matter how much they try, I still don't give a smurf about him. No matter what predicament he finds himself in, it's always the same. I do not care. I am watching "MacGyver". Shifting the focus of the main story to an underdeveloped guest character of such little relevance to MacGyver made me eager to see the episode end.
The Coltons are the most boring side-characters in here, rivaling Leanna's insignificance. And to waste Riley in a yawn-inducing side-plot with them, what a shame. She carried that whole storyline, hopefully for the last time.

This is a re-imagining of the episode "Countdown" in the original MacGyver, where Mac and Charlie have to disarm bombs on a ship.
What an episode. :like:
Great performances all around. Peter Weller is in this. He really elevated the episode. :salute:
Excellent writing and directing too. Maybe keep this crew for every episode from now on? Or at least assign them to more episodes? Please?
Wonderful cold opening. It sets up everything promptly, demanding my attention and gaining my interest.
We are quickly introduced to the new main villain, and I look forward to seeing him more.
Through a tragedy and the resulting conflict, we see further character development.
No side-plots. No insignificant characters, no sitcom silliness. Just a well paced, interesting, intriguing, entertaining, and very promising main plot.
This. This is what the show needs. If it had started like this, more people would have watched it. I can only hope this high level of quality continues.
I would be comfortable to call this the best episode yet. There have been other good ones, but it has been a while since I watched them, and I have done so only once. Still, this episode was an absolute joy. Perfect blend of drama, action, and MacGyver. :2tu:
I do not know how I can recommend the final episode of the third season, but if you can somehow watch this, then watch it. :cheers:

Not a bad episode, nor anything special. Boring one-off villain, rather predictable plot.
I am not a fan of Mac explaining what he is doing as he is doing it, nor of Maddy summing up the plot as the show returns from commercials.
Nor of Bozer, who is comic relief with no comedy.
Nor of the many cliches of a virus/contagion action film.
Nobody did much in this episode. Even MacGyver seemed kinda bored doing MacGyverisms.
Kind of a slow start, to get us going. Hopefully it will pick up.

It's interesting how there are so many Evos but no Alox.
I guess the little red ones are iconic.

That is interesting. I've never thought of that. I am also waiting for a Spirit to make an appearance. Especially the chisel.
What a coincidence, too. The next episode has an Evo. :cheers:

A nice episode this one. Just a main plot, and a good one at that. Bozer finally proves useful. A little cliche of an action scene, but at least they gave him something to do, other than ineffective comic relief.
I am not a fan of the Mac and Desi plot-line, and neither are most people. Fans were against Mac's romance with Cage and she was written off. Why is the same thing pursued and even forced with Desi?

This is NOT Macgyver, and it will never be!! :rant:
This "franchise" is a disservice to the real Macgyver show and spirit. Nothing more than a Victorinox line show case, as the main character is the SAK. Even RDA wanted nothing to do with it after being invited on board.
Mediocre acting, and laughable plots and scripts. It's "Team" Macgyver meets CSI/NCIS/-any other action show of today-.
Sorry if this shocks anyone, but what i've always liked about the real Macgyver more than the use of a SAK is the science and thought process, and also the fact that (while still fiction) a lot of the "Macgyverisms" where actually possible, and most of all simple. The SAK was just a handy tool to help out when needed, not the star of the show.
Rant and personal opinion on the show apart, still fantastic work on ID-ing all the SAK's on the EP's :tu:

Very great work.
I have a question.
Does MacGyver use a Spartan Lite or something in the basement ?

Just a quick question, as I have only just started watching this new series...
I read that the original Macgyver production went through over 144 different SAKs during the course of filming, and they obviously have different models available in both series. Is the difference ever actually explain in either show?
I mean, in episodes where Mac makes use of more than one SAK, is this because he carries several on his person at any one time, or does he carry just one 'movie magic' SAK that goes from two layers to six, to three, to five, to four in between scenes, as and when the prop department feels like it?
-
In some episodes, he uses a SAK to cut something, then in a close-up, he uses another one. And further down the episode, he uses another SAK for something else, then one he was using before, then another model.
This is not explained in the episode. Of course MacGyver does not have a dozen SAKs on his belt or in his pockets, so it's just a matter of continuity mistakes. They have a big box of free SAKs, supplied by Victorinox for product placement, so they grab one at random to film a scene. And because the scenes and their different angles and close-ups and character perspectives are not filmed in sequence, we get the 'magical SAK' effect.
